Renee: The Minotaur was really cool to fight.

One of the special abilities you can buy is to make your swords catch on fire. There is another one that makes them poisonous instead. I wound up going the fire route.

The game is really pretty looking. It reminds me of the first time I played Oblivion. It is a wonderfully open world, that after the beginning "Tutorial" section you are free to explore at will. Mostly, since some areas might be higher level areas than you are until later on.


Acadian: The Minotaur was really cool. There are Cyclopses (it looks like there are 3) were really neat too.

The Corinthians were never as good at sailing as the Athenians. So to even the odds at one point they reinforced the bows of their ships, and then started the tactics of ramming the Athenians head on in the first pass. It helped a little, but they still could never match Athens on the sea.

Athens

Some pirates were attacking Athenian ships. So Kassandra swam out and boarded the pirate ship.

Flipper!

Who didn't let the wolves out?

A Greek town

[Acadian]

Magnificent shots of Athens and that town. And what a neat shot of flipper in the air!

Kassandra again

[Renee]

What game are these pics from?

Ha ha is that gravity pic a glitch? Seems so.

Whoa, look at Kassandra. And look at the Cyclops. These newer generations of graphics are just stunning. I haven't been taking part of it yet. I feel like when I finally get a current-gen game system, my eyes are going to melt.

Is this Assassin's Creed?

[SubRosa]

It is Assassin's Creed Odyssey.

[Acadian]

I thought your character had a flying eagle familiar - not a flying horse.

Posing

[Acadian]

“Does this power armor make my butt look big? No. . . don’t answer that.”

The bigger they are, the harder they – you know.

I had a real chuckle over the work site safety comment.

That second set of power armor is really bright. It be da bomb.

Posing is a neat shot!

January rolls into Morrowind once again, this time in the actual game Morrowind:

January in Seyda Neen

Pink Skies

"Red sky at dawn, blood has been spilled this night."

Just when I thought it was safe to go back in the water...

Red Mountain at Morning

These dwarves must have dug too greedily, and too deep. January wonders what they awoke there in the depths of Khazad-dum

Jan's new skirt really pops

The big city in the distance

Feeling like a fish out of water

[Acadian]

Yikes and ugh! Slobberfish!

Well, we’re certainly not going to lose Jan with that red skirt on!

Big city in the distance. Is that Vivec City? If so, I attribute my deduction from playing ESO (since I’ve never touched TES III).

[SubRosa]

Acadian: That is Vivec City in the background. I forget that with ESO you travel to many of the same places in the single player games.


I grew weary of Morrowind... being Morrowind. So I decided to move January's game over to Morroblivion.

This time January is a Nord in Morroblivion

Getting some gear

She still feels a bit like a fish out of water

But the skeleton crew keeps her spirits up

Oh rats!

[Acadian]

After thinking about it, seems Nord is perhaps a good choice for Jan seeing that she's a blonde with plenty of norse/viking lore.

A flying slaughterfish!

The skeelies any kin of Darrel?

Rats, why is it always rats!?!

[Lopov]

January comes in November!

Now that's some proper armor for tomb raidering.

I don't know who's more confused - the fish or January.

Hey, are these guys Larryl and Darryl?

Perhaps it was Lady Saga that summoned all those rats.

[SubRosa]

Acadian: I usually waffle about what exact race to make January. The last time I played her in Morroblivion it was as a Breton, since she is a magic-user. This time I decided to do something different and lean into her Viking heritage and make her a Nord instead.

I am not sure why, but an awful lot of slaughterfish in Morroblivion wind up either floating in mid air, or flopping around on land. I wonder if their spawn points were placed too near the land?

No Darryls for January. She's not really the summoning type. She does not want someone else fighting her battles for her. Though if she were to summon things, it would probably be elementals. Which I guess would mean Atronachs in this game.

January is not even in the Fighter's Guild, and she is still fighting rats!


Lopov: I love what you did there with January's name and the month.

The Chitin armor is definitely my favorite in Morrowind, followed closely by Bonemold.

No Larry or Darryl for Jan. She's not the summoning type, at least not of undead. Maybe someday she might call up elementals however.

I was thinking of Lady Saga when I saw all those rats too!




Fetching Archers!!!

Sneaky Stormcrow

A storm is coming in

Meeting Mr. Goodyear

[Acadian]

Fetching archers gives a whole new meaning to the term ‘Bowgirl’.

Aww, a rainbow over January – how appropriate!

A storm is coming in and her name is Crow!

[Lopov]

Everything's fine as long as there aren't any arrows in her knees.

Lovely rainbow - always a sign of something positive.

Must be difficult to sneak with that sword.

How does she manage to get all that hair under her helmet?

[SubRosa]

Acadian: January is a rainbow crow. A RainCrow.


Lopov: January still is an adventurer like you...

Making that hair disappear is one of January's magic powers.


macole: It is similar to the way making yourself magnetic helps in attracting bullets...


Acadian: January is a rainbow crow. A RainCrow.


Fetching Archers Again!

Jan's got her night vision goggles on

Storm vs. Blizzard

January flies in from out of town

Read any good books lately?

[Acadian]

I like January's doo. The arrows don't add much though.

NVGs and the ability to fly - pretty handy, I'd say.

A very nice night sky with the moon twins on display.
